  • phosphorylated on Arg-265 [Pubmed|31221751]
  • phosphorylated on several Arg residues [Pubmed|24263382]
  • phosphorylated during [SW|sporulation] on Thr-63 by [protein|E86A96B832351FF513DD9853EAD8998CC44C9951|YabT], dephosphorylated by [protein|84447F9A6644EA8A7593BB99B2B69D4377E670E2|PrpC] [Pubmed|26056311]

    • Structure

  • [PDB|3U6B] (from ''E. coli '', 77% identity) [Pubmed|21999529]

    • [SW|Localization]

  • EF-Tu localizes in a helical pattern underneath the cell membrane and colocalizes with [protein|A4C8719E06F774A6EB4D79757CC79CF89E453A54|MreB] [Pubmed|20133608]
